β-lactam antibiotic
Featured Products
Ampicillin sodium (CAS 69-52-3) is a β-lactam antibiotic that exerts antibacterial activity by competitively inhibiting bacterial transpeptidase enzymes. Transpeptidases catalyze the critical final steps of bacterial cell wall biosynthesis; their inhibition disrupts cell-wall integrity, leading to bacterial cell lysis. In assays using E. coli 146 cells, ampicillin sodium demonstrates an IC50 value of 1.8 μg/ml against transpeptidase and an MIC value of 3.1 μg/ml. Research studies utilize ampicillin sodium to evaluate antibacterial efficacy in vitro and in animal infection models.
